The term "yelling Peter" during football kickoffs originated as a way for players to communicate and avoid collisions during the play. When the ball is kicked, players on the receiving team would shout "Peter" to alert their teammates that they are not going to catch the ball, allowing those players to move out of the way. This practice helps prevent confusion and potential accidents on the field during kickoffs.
